Overview:
Despite the spirited opposition of Poland’s Army Lodz and the still-mobilizing Army Prusy, the German 1st and 4th Panzer Divisions drove deep into the heart of Poland. As the panzer divisions continued their assault, bending straight for the town of Piotrkow, the Polish general staff attempted to organize order out of the chaos and launched a counterattack by Army Prusy. During the morning, the first major tank battle of the war developed on the western outskirts of town.Attacker: Polish (2nd Light Tank Battalion)
Defender: German (1st and 4th Panzer Divisions)

| Date | Reporter | Opponent | Result | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2021-07-19 | (D) Jason Nichols | vs | Eric Topp | German win | Armour only so very dependent on good dice rolls. My opponent retired German turn 2 when I rolled snakes to hit a tank in the AFPh after his DF shots had all missed. |
| 2021-03-30 | (A) Thomas Huber-Wehner | vs | Attila | German win | We had a lot of fun playing this interesting scenario. It was a give and take with a lot of drama. Landing a CH to see the shot bouncing off (TK 12...), MA breaking down, mixing up Pz IIA with PSW 231 (both have the same gun and driving in front of the enemy with a PSW 231 while thinking it's a Pz IIA isn't such a good thing... :D ). If you need some practice in AFV rules and combat, this scenario is an excellent Fahrstunde. |
| 2021-02-08 | (D) Paul Legg | vs | Oyvind Bjorkas | German win (VASL Log) | GotM - Played with German balance. Even at the end of turn 2 with 3 tanks a side. Germans gained the flanks with the Poles in the centre.Called it on turn 4 poles movement with them only having 2 tanks remaining to the Germans 7 although 2 had malf'd MA and one was UK. |
| 2021-02-08 | (A) Øyvind Jacobsen Bjørkås | vs | Paul | German win | The Polish conceded after turn 3, when they had only 2 thanks left while the German had 5 mobile AFVs left ands ahead by 12 points in the race. We used the German balance. |
| 2021-01-18 | (A) rene cote | vs | mrosberg | German win | |
| 2020-07-20 | (D) Dwayne Duval | vs | Kevin Duval | Polish win | |
| 2020-07-20 | (A) Kevin Duval | vs | Dwayne Duval | Polish win | Germans took too many casualties by the end of Turn 3 to be able to make up the shortfall in CVP. |
| 2020-05-24 | (A) Jake Smith | vs | Javanabal Radjah | Polish win | Really dicey game. |
| 2020-05-05 | (D) Dan Best | vs | Dave Mareske | Polish win | |
| 2019-02-23 | (D) Tom Kearney | vs | Lindsey Murillo | Polish win | The Polish completely outgunned my Germans. |
| 2018-12-21 | (D) Jeff B | vs | John Malaska | Polish win | I hate AFV-only scenarios. I really hate being the attacker in AFV-only scenarios. I wish I would've realized I was using the outdated version when we started; it may have been a game then. Having an extra 37L and AL would have made a big difference. As it was I lost one of 37Ls on Turn 2 despite being HD. I had lost a 20L previous to that on a lucky bounding fire shot. My opponent had fabulous luck with his shooting, while I failed every motion attempt I tried (despite at least two of them needing anything but a 6.) The only thing I was good at were sD attempts. I nailed every one. I should have just stayed in motion, laying smoke, and driving right off the board. Unfortunately for me I actually tried to make an interesting game out of a dud. Over by Turn 4. |
| 2018-12-21 | (A) John Malaska | vs | Jeff Buser | Polish win | Some very lucky shots, plus Jeff played the older scenario version, which would have given him a better chance. Finally got a handle on AFVs. |
| 2016-06-18 | (A) Dave Mareske | vs | Ryan Ellett | Polish win | |
| 2014-05-14 | (D) Jeff B | vs | Chad Cooper | Polish win | A fun all-tank battle. Simultaneous setup makes it interesting as well. |
| 2013-10-07 | (D) Gordon Jupp | vs | Michael Rodgers | Polish win | ASLOK 2013 |
| 2013-10-07 | (A) Michael Rodgers | vs | Gordon Jupp | Polish win | Of course it is dicey, but we enjoyed playing it. |
| 2013-09-08 | (A) Vic Lauterbach | vs | EVL | German win | Very close, came down to my final shots @ exiting PzII's! It's a very entertaining tin-can bloodbath. The Polish twin-turret tankettes are interesting to operate although mine failed to get any kills even with flank shots. Also a good scenario for practicing and/or teaching the AFV rules. |
| 2013-04-11 | (A) Luke Sineath | vs | Kevin Conley | Polish win | |
| 2013-01-16 | (D) Russell Dewhurst | vs | [solo] | Draw | Solo to practice Chapter D rules. Learned a lot about AFV engagements. Almost all AFVs wiped out by the end, Germans didn't exit anything. Poles won 39 VP to German 26 VP and Germans needed to be 10 up. |
| 2011-10-01 | (D) Keith Colins | vs | Joe vandal | German win | |
| 2011-08-09 | (A) X von Marwitz | vs | Martin Mayers | Polish win | Cannot remember scenario rating, so put "Average". |
| 2009-04-05 | (A) Aaron Sibley | vs | Carl Sizmur | Polish win | |
| 2006-01-01 | (D) Bill Brodie | vs | Paul Beavis | German win | Good fun, unusual toys and good for learning the armour rules. |
| 1998-12-12 | (A) Richard Jenulis | vs | Ken Marcinonis | Polish win | |
| 1998-11-07 | (A) Rich Weiley | vs | Mark McGilchrist | Polish win | Paddington Bearz - November 1998. |
